To improve the competence of lecturers, the English Study Program of Politeknik Negeri Jember (Polije) sent five lecturer representatives to take part in the Non-Degree Program for Lecturer Competency Improvement (NDPKD) Kemdikbudristek 2023. The activity in the form of Service Design Competency Certification in Hospitality and Tourism was organized by Nanyang Polytechnic Singapore.
The five lecturers who became representatives to participate in the activity were Enik Rukiati, S.Pd., M.Pd., Nila Susanti, SS., M.Pd., Fitri Wijayanti, S.Pd., M.Pd., Nodistya Septian Indrastana, S.S., S.Pd., M.Pd., and Julien Arief Wicaksono, S.Pd., M.Pd.
According to Enik Rukiati, the representatives from Polije who participated in the activity received training and were tested on materials related to hospitality and managerial roles in the field of services and hospitality.
“The five of us went to Singapore to take part in activities organized at Nanyang Polytechnic Singapore. We learned a lot about service design and managerial competencies in the service sector in the form of classroom studies and practical projects,” said Enik Rukiati.
After participating in this competency certification test, participants are expected to apply their abilities to develop and design service operations in their work units. In addition, it is also expected that there will be similar trainings to improve the competence of lecturers.
“I hope that after attending the training, what is obtained in Singapore can be applied at Polije, especially in the English Study Program. So that it can also improve the competence to students,” concluded Enik Rukiati. (hnf/ang/vig)
